U2 - You’re The Best Thing About Me (Official Video)

The official music video for You're The Best Thing About Me by U2.
The video, directed by Jonas Åkerlund, sees the members of U2 revelling in the sights and sounds of New York City, where as a young Dublin band they played their first U.S. club gig in December 1980 beginning a love affair with the city which has endured for almost 40 years. Shot in 2017 while the band were on tour and featuring U2 in performance, the video is a fitting backdrop for You’re The Best Thing About Me - Bono’s love letter to his wife Ali - and serves as a visual tapestry of tribute to New York and a serenade to the city’s iconic symbols of American compassion and liberty.

Lyrics:
When you look so good
The pain in your face doesn't show
When you look so good
and baby you don't even know
When the world is ours
But the world is not your kind of thing
Full of shooting stars
Brighter as they're vanishing
Oh you've seen enough to know it's children who teach
You're still free enough to wake up on a bed or a beach.
You're the best thing about me
The best thing that ever happened a boy
You're the best thing about me
I'm the kind of trouble that you enjoy
You're the best thing about me
The best things are easy to destroy
You're the best thing about me
The best thing about me
I've been crying out
How bad can a good time be
Shooting off my mouth
That's another great thing about me
I have everything but I feel like nothing at all
There's no risky thing for a man who's determined to fall
You're the best thing about me
The best thing that ever happened a boy
You're the best thing about me
I'm the kind of trouble that you enjoy
You're the best thing about me
The best things are easy to destroy
You're the best thing about me
Why am I
Why am I walking away
Why am I walking away?
I can see it all so clearly
I can see what you can't see
I can see you love her loudly
When she needs you quietly
You're the best thing about me
The best things are easy to destroy
You're the best thing about me
Why am I
Why am I walking away (walking away)
Why am I walking away?

YESSSS the boys are back 👍🏻😃

[@zeitok8]

how many songs u2 have about america? xd

[@kurzeme]

I was worried before watching this. What if they will now try to sound like the sellouts in the charts? But they didn't, they still sing what they feel. What I like the most is that they actually changed while still keeping the spirit. After all, I have heard 100 traditional u2 songs, it's time for something different! Keep it up, I like it that way!!! :)))

This is one of their best songs ever created. Brings me to tears of joy listening to this. ❤

Larry has to be the most focused drumer in rock and roll. No showboating or headbanging, his playing speaks for itself.
